      Pros

      Incredible learning environment — you're surrounded by smart, driven people. Ownership is real: you're trusted to make decisions and deliver results. Great compensation package, including RSUs and benefits.

      Cons

      Work-life balance can be a challenge, especially during peak seasons or critical launches. Internal processes and tools can sometimes feel outdated or overly complex.

      Pros

      Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

      Cons

      You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
